Walnuttree Lane 37 The Granary

Commercial

Isaac Clover's late 19thC granary stands opposite his imposing four storey roller mill, now part of the Mill Hotel. Grain was delivered and stored in a tall silo attached to the Granary and then fed down through a high level pipe across the road and into the mill. The bricked up opening on the third floor was probably the site of the lucam - a projecting box-like structure through which sacks of grain were hoisted up from waggons below. The building has been altered considerably over the years but remains as a link with Sudbury's past. Now used for offices and accommodation.
